Love, says Dr. Fromm, is the only satisfactory answer to the problem of human existence. In this long-established classic of psychology, Dr. Fromm shows how learning to love, like other arts, demands practice and concentration. He explains why he believes that most of us are unable to develop our capacities for love on the only level that really counts--a love that is based on maturity, self-knowledge, and courage--and shows readers how to attain such a love. He discusses love in all its aspects, not only romantic love, but also the love of parents for children, brotherly love, erotic love, self-love, and love of God. Copyright (C) Muze Inc. 2005.
